Thursday, 25th April 2019, Australia and New Zealand will enjoy a national public holiday to pay their respects to those that made the ultimate sacrifice and for those who continue to serve while protecting our freedom.
‘ANZAC’ stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. On the 25th of April 1915, Australian and New Zealand soldiers formed part of the allied expedition that set out to capture the Gallipoli peninsula. These became known as Anzacs and the pride they took in that name continues to this day.

Every year hundreds of people make their way to Currumbin Beachfront on the Gold Coast to enjoy a beautiful and iconic dawn service held by the local Currumbin RSL and Currumbin Vikings SLSC.
If you’re unable to join this service, it is available live on national TV, channel 7, Sunrise.
Later on you can make your way to a local nearby RSL and enjoy a famous game called two-up, only played on Anzac day.
The game of two-up goes back quite a way in Australia, clocking in around the mid-1800s.
‘We will remember them’
